Having problems with your HP Compaq FS 7550 17" CRT Monitor ?

The Power Cord came loose and has been lost!

\015 Where can I get another power cord for my HP Compaq FS 7550 17in. CRT?\015

Answers :

I really don't understand why someone would post the comment that the monitor doesn't use the same kind of power cord as the computer. The detachable three-prong AC cord is an industry standard, and the are all alike at the connection end. The only trouble you might have with monitors is on LCD's, which on some brands and models use an AC to DC adapter instead of plugging directly into an AC outlet. You can pick up a replacement power cord anywhere. If you go to a neighborhood thrift store (Goodwill, Salvation Army, etc.) you can usually find them for a buck or less. Buy a new one at an office place or Radio Shack and you'll pay $5 or more. But you don't have to knock yourself out looking online for something special.
